Should I buy a VPI SCOUTMASTER. I OWN 25 RECORDS.


Should I pursue analog? Invest maybe 3 or 4 grand in a table and start buying records? Some stuff sounds really good on Vinyl but it's an expensive endeavor and NEW records aren't cheap. Plus thos pops and noise and a lot of setup required. Love the vintage aspect of it. Some records sound truly amazing on a really good table and cartridge. Take the plunge? Or buy a better DAC and dont look back!!! Lol.

jeffvegas asks:
Is the Scoutmaster with JMW memorual arm and a Hana SL a bad table or not? Preferences aside.

Preferences aside there are no bad tables.
Will this table blow away my Project debut carbon?

No. For that I recommend the Vornado Alchemy

Jeff, I took the plunge (replunged actually) into vinyl about 20 years ago. I still have my Music Hall mmf-5 and Lehmann Black Cube phono preamp, and the music - jazz and rock mostly -  is almost always glorious. And it’s a lot of fun sifting through the bins at the record store. I recently discovered Idris Muhammed at one of my local record shops.  Wowza! My point is,  don’t need to spend a heap of money to enjoy great vinyl sound.  Good luck and happy listening.
